My first song that I've used both guitar & piano recordings as base. I think the simple piano sound added a little volume to an otherwise overly-stripped down guitar tune and thin vocals on the chorus.

Ama (NOR)

Singer-songwriter, acoustic guitar

The "band" is just me, silly :) Ama, 20 years old singer-songwriter from Norway. I've been playing and writing for about 4 or 5 years, but doing it seriously only for the last 2. My lyrics are my pride, second to the guitar that accompanies them. I try to write not too much melancholy, try to add in sarcasm etc, but my heart keeps on giving everything (almost) a good kick of melancholy no matter what I do. People have given me credit for writing very melodic songs, songs that can be sung accapella and lose not too much of their 'feel'. If this is true, I don't know - I always appreciate feedback with (both positive and negative) critizism - as long as I'm given some time to digest it ;) My nspiration is anything singer-songrwiter really. I listen to artists and bands who are recognized for their lyrics - that's what's important to me. Before musical cleverness, I adore clever lyrics. A combination of the two makes a fan out of me.

Story behind the song

Ahh.. wouldn't you like to know what it's about? Haha. Well, to tell you the truth - it's about no one in particular, it's sort of a mix between a couple of incidents in my life merged into one piece of misery (walks away laughing at herself)

Lyrics

I think it was you who taught me
about this world as I know it
and it's okay,
I don't mind much
even now that I know that

you're not here 
when I need you the most
I'm alone
here in this cold wind so rough

But i'll pull through
I'll pull through
I'll pull through

Is there something I can do
to make you bleed
like I've bled
Rewritten letters 
in a box
from I don't wanna know when

Now 
I'm not a fool
but whose fault is that?
And I wanna be brave
but I wish i didn't have
anything to forget about

and i could write my lover a letter
of how his love tends to leave 
scars that won't heal
And not rewrite and worry
just send it
and get it done and over with
over with, oh

Is there something I can cheat 
to kick you right where it 
hurts?
'cuz you play dirty
& I don't play
by your rules
Your dice is fixed and you
card are marked
but you're not the only one who can play two parts
i can play two parts
if you force me to

And I could write my lover a letter
of how I hope how I hope he's fulfilled
his ever dream
and lie him in the face and say
that when he comes back I'd be sure 
to let him in

and i'd play his game
i'd play for two
I'd kiss & tell
Use my own rules
but I'm still the fool
with the unsent notes
It's a crying shame
It's a long time been

and i could write my lover a letter
of how his love tends to leave 
scars that don't heal

There's no easy way in
There's no easy way out
with you
But I'll pull through
I'll pull through
